Anne couldn't like Kendall. Just like how some people would run away when they smelled durian, but some people couldn't help but run towards it and hold it in their arms. These were things that nobody could control

However, she wouldn't allow others to hurt Kendall just because she was unable to like her.

"Kendall, Braden and I have already looked for a house. Please take care of my brother." Anne's tone was frigid.

"I..." Kendall wanted to say that she was the one who should leave, but when she came to think of it, if she left, Rick would go with her too. Rick's gentle character made it impossible for him to sit and do nothing when she was hurt to this extent.

So this time, Rick would definitely stay beside her and take care of her. Kendall bit her lower lip, lowered her head, and said, "Thank you."

"Rick, I am leaving with Braden first," Anne said and paused. "Kendall, I will never regret helping you to look for my brother all over the world today, but I will never regret slapping you either. I won't accept you, but that won't stop me from helping you."

Kendall nodded slightly and continued to ask in a determined manner, "But, I actually don't understand why you slapped me..."

"Other than me, my brother doesn't have another sister. You can call him whatever you want in front of others. But calling him your brother in front of me would only make me feel like you are asserting dominance over him in front of me."

After Anne finished her words, she left with Braden.

Kendall believed in this explanation, but Rick really didn't expect it to be that simple. He always thought that Anne was doing it to vent her anger for Charlotte.

However, if she thought about it according to Anne's logic, she was standing from the perspective of a little sister to protect her own brother, which was her personal view. Maybe a small part of her did it for Charlotte, but it was only a tiny part.

Anne was herself first, followed by the daughter of the Jane Family, then Rick's younger sister, and finally all kinds of social relationships.

Rick might have learned a lesson from his own sister.

He bent over and put his slender fingers on Kendall's face. "I will work with Shane to deal with this matter. Do you know how to answer if your brother and father ask you about it?"

"Yes!"

"That's good."

The sadness that had long settled between Rick's eyebrows caused Kendall's heart to ache a little. She reached out and gently touched the space between his eyebrows. "Rick, I won't cause you so much trouble in the future again. Don't be sad anymore."
